Just a quick update...
CA 15-3
1003 as of 8/3 (first reading)
527 as of 8/30
334 as of 9/15
102 as of 10/11
47.9 as of 10/2
It's amazing to see this tumor marker go from over 1000 to under 50 after 4 cycles of TCH! Thank you all for the continued support. After the final cycle later this month (11/22), we will be weighing the next steps. Currently it's looking like some form of liver resection is being considered, then deal with a single mx. Discussion of even continuing some Xeloda before a surgery has been brought up as well.
Anyone with experience here, please let us know your thoughts.
